As should be no surprise, the top game of the NBA Playoffs was Game 7 of the Spurs/Heat NBA Finals. Game 7 earned a 15.3 final rating and 26.3 million viewers on ABC alone (an additional 269,000 viewers watched on ESPN Deportes), the second-largest audience for any NBA game since 1998.

Game 6 of the series ranked second for the postseason, with a 12.3 and 20.6 million viewers — the seventh-largest NBA audience since ’98.
Overall, eighteen of the 20 most-viewed playoff games involved the Miami Heat, including the top sixteen. Even Game 4 of the Heat/Bucks first round yawner had more viewers than any non-Heat playoff game.

TNT’s top game of the postseason was Game 7 of the Heat/Pacers Eastern Conference Finals (7.1, 11.6M), which ranks as the most-viewed NBA game ever on the network. The top game on ESPN was Game 3 of the Heat/Bulls second round series (4.2, 6.6M). The top game on NBA TV was Game 2 of the Heat/Bucks first round series (0.5, 764K).

On the opposite end of the spectrum, the lowest rating of the playoffs was a 0.1 for Games 2, 4 and 5 of the Pacers/Hawks first round series on NBA TV. Excluding NBA TV, the lowest rating was a 0.4 for Game 6 of Pacers/Hawks on ESPN2. The Pacers/Hawks series accounted for the lowest rated games of the playoffs on NBA TV, ESPN2 and ESPN, and tied the lowest rating of the playoffs on TNT — matching a Heat/Bucks game that aired opposite the first round of the NFL Draft.
